I intalled RH6.1 at home last week and it autodetected the network card. I just had to tell it to use DHCP to setup the card, and by the time it finished the intall and rebooted, the cable modem was working. Nothing to it. Well actually I didn't do anything. But when the people from the cable company came to install the cable modem a month ago, it took them around one hour to set it up in windows 98. The cable modem installation in Linux was too easy.
